Is that even possible?

orangerfulOne of my co-workers did the math for me this evening, and if I keep a full course load for every semester, it is possible that I could have my MLS completed by 2009.
Wow. I was thinking it would take longer. But the whole thing is only 15 courses (45 credit hours).
Of course, I would have to stay full time the entire time AND pass all the courses.
That's almost too soon!
I have to wake up early tomorrow. I'm going into D.C. for the OCLC conference. The topic: "Social Networking: Fad, Folly, or Future?".
I've never been to an event like this. I feel like I'm crashing a party! Hopefully they will have some new ideas, or maybe even examples of successful use of Web 2.0 sites with libraries.
Alright, I'm going to go read 'Extras' and then go to bed!

I also bet that someone will make this statement within the first hour of the conference. Looking at the panel, I also say that you may know as much about social networking as some of the speakers. They should have asked you to speak!

And I totally could have knocked the speakers down and gone up there myself. Not a whole lot of new ground. I was sort of disappointed. I have a few sites I wrote down of examples of public libraries using Web 2.0 stuff, but those didn't actually come up until the Q&A at the end.
Oh well, they gave me free food!
